Citabria Pro (N5143T) ?

The current condition and location of the aircraft are unknown. A
recent search of the FAA N number database list the Pro's N number
(N5143T) as reserved, with no aircraft assigned to the number. A
search of the NYSB aviation accident database can find no accident
involving N5143T.

Does anybody know what happened to the aircraft and where it can be
found ?

The FAA database says a bit more than that. It appears the aircraft was
destroyed. Interesting to note it had an Experimental airworthiness
certificate and a serial number 1?? What's the story behind this?
